User queries are received, with each query requesting a service from a server. Overlapping experiments are performed on at least a portion of the queries, with each experiment modifying one or more parameters associated with the queries or parameters associated with processing of the queries, and with the experiments organized into layers. Two or more experiments in different layers are allowed to be performed on the same query, and for any given layer, at most one experiment is allowed to be performed on the same query.

Overlapping experiments

A content distribution network includes a proxy server in communication with one or more content distribution servers. The proxy server services connections to the content distribution servers from one or more client devices. The proxy server responds to changes in memory utilization for servicing the connections of the client devices. To respond to the changes in memory utilization, the proxy server may include a connection manager, a process manager, and a memory manager. The memory manager performs one or more operations to determine a memory pressure amount. The memory pressure amount may represent a ratio of the amount of memory allocated by the proxy server to the amount of memory available to the proxy server. Based on monitoring the memory pressure amount, the memory manager adjusts a connection serviceable amount that informs the connection manager of the number of potential connections the proxy server may service.
